Problem

Description:

I had posted this buy yesterday but for some reason it vanished.

Redshift 3.0.16 has an issue with the latest Ornatrix demo.  The IPR wont start a render until the window for the IPR is moved.  I was told by Redshift this was to do with Ornatrix.  After doing some tests it sure was.  Not only was this issue was seen but general lag in Redshift performance topping starting and freezing was happening.

Nothing newer than the workaround I suggested to you in https://ephere.com/plugins/autodesk/max/ornatrix/defect_13179.html - did you try it?

The way Redshift currently deploys and uses its copy of Qt makes it next to impossible for other plugins to use Qt (unless there exists some workaround to make two different Qt versions coexist within the same process, of which I'm highly sceptical, but only a Qt expert could tell).

In the current situation our best choice is to give up Qt and implement some other (much less user friendly) method for the user to install their license. We haven't made that decision yet.

That is a pain indeed.  Is this issue with all platforms, or just Cinema 4D?

Just Cinema C4D.

3dsMax and Maya include Qt and plugins may use it if they want, no danger of conflicts between them.

The V1 nightly build (23767 or later) no longer uses Qt at all. Please test it with Redshift IPR.

Just done a quick check and I can confirm that the IPR is not lagging, and it starts up right away without having to move the IPR window, well done on getting this fixed.  I will continue to test but I can notice this right away.
